This thesis puts the purpose in investigating the formation phase of new relationships of Buddhism Divinity(佛敎神格) and traditional Divinity(在來神格) by analyzing narratives of Samgukyusa. Samgukyusa was investigated to examine 5 basic types in the stories of this history book. This thesis classified the names of 5 basic types and explored these characteristics 1) Subjugation (Buddhism Divinity exterminates traditional Divinity) 2) The ceremony of receiving the precepts (Buddhism Divinity gives the precepts). 3) The defense of a Buddha-dharma (Traditional divinity is transformed into the deity for the protection of Dharma). 4) Seeking for salvation (Traditional divinity takes a vow of the salvation of Buddha and Bodhisattva). 5) One body of God and Heaven (Traditional divinity is the Buddhism divinity, which existed in the previous lives of reincarnation). It was confirmed that (2)～(5) types among 5 types are the methods to allocate the traditional divinity into the vertical system of Buddhism. Noticeable fact is that it became difficult for ancient religion, which was encountered with Buddhism in Korea after choosing vertical structure, to preserve unique system as well as polytheism which is indistinct in hierarchy. It is presumed that ancient religion was completely included to the system of Buddhism and could not present relationship type that backs up its independence. The reasons for choosing vertical structure can be inferred from various angles. Especially, religious sentiments of accommodation groups (=race), which were intended to put the highest divinity in the top, played a significant role. Accordingly, it is estimated that established vertical structure (=Pyramid type-structure) might have influenced besides the acceptance process in the Neo Confucianism and the modern Christianity. Five basic types that have been discussed in this thesis will be a stepping stone to expand the scope of investigation into East Asia. It is judged that traditional divinity in China and Japan has developed the method for 'parallel' coexistence with the grand scheme of Buddhism, and preserved polytheism of the ancient religion through being paralleled with Buddhism. In addition, it is conjectured that this difference would be the source of various differences in culture. It will be clarified more specifically through the comparative discussion in the future.
